PREFACE

These Work Papers are being produced in two series by the Summer Institute of Linguistics, Australian Aborigines Branch, Inc. in order to make results of SIL research in Australia more widely available. Series A includes technical papers on linguistic or anthropological analysis and description, or on literacy research. Series B contains material suitable for a broader audience, including the lay audience for which it is often designed, such as language learning lessons and dictionaries.

Both series include reports on current research and on past research projects. Some papers by other than SIL members are included, although most are by SIL field workers. The majority of material concerns linguistic matters, although related fields such as anthropology and education are also included.

Because of the preliminary nature of most of the material to appear in the Work Papers, these volumes are being circulated on a limited basis. It is hoped that their contents will prove of interest to those concerned with linguistics in Australia, and that comment on their contents will be forthcoming from the readers. Papers should not be reproduced without the authors' consent, nor cited without due reference to their preliminary status.

Views expressed by the authors are not necessarily those of SIL.

Research resulting in this volume was partially funded by grants from the Department of Aboriginal Affairs.

INTRODUCTION

There are three dictionaries in this volume. The main dictionary is an alphabeticallyorganized listing of Djinang words, and contains various fields of information for each Djinang entry. Thus an entry will contain several of the following fields:

1. Djinang word or phrase 2. Dialect information 3. Part of speech 4. English meaning 5. Roget's Thesaurus semantic category number 6. Illustrative example (either a sentence, or phrase, with English translation) 7. Synonyms (including speech and dialect variants of the same word) 8. Antonyms

Some of these fields of information occur in every entry (eg. 1, 3, & 4); some occur in most entries (eg. 2, & 5); some occur in a relatively few entries (eg. 6, & 7); while antonyms (8) occur in only a couple of entries.

If a Djinang word or phrase has more than one sense, the entry will give all the Djinang senses. I have tried to give enough English senses to indicate the semantic range of a Djinang word in those cases where I know a single English gloss to be too restrictive. For each such sense, I often give a Roget category number as well particularly if the category numbers differ.

Synonyms are usually given at the end of the entry, or after the first of the English meanings. Normally a synonym will have the same range of meanings as the main entry, though not always. The reader should check in the dictionary where the synonym is listed as a main entry to see its range of meanings. It must not be assumed that the range of meanings and the listed synonyms given for any entry are exhaustive. The dictionary represents only my knowledge of the language at the time of writing, and will be expanded by subsequent field work.

In addition to the main dictionary, the volume contains two 'reversed' dictionaries. One is a reversal organized

v

around the English 'keywords' (ie. the words of an English gloss which I judge to be significant as abbreviated indicators of the full sense), in alphabetical order. In this reversed dictionary, the only other fields of information in an entry are the Djinang word or phrase, and Roget's semantic category number. These latter two permit cross referencing of the other reversed dictionary as well as of the main dictionary.

The other reversed dictionary is organized around the Roget Thesaurus semantic category number, entries being arranged in ascending numerical order. For any group of entries having the same number, the entries are mutually ordered with respect to the Djinang word or phrase. The only other field included in an entry is the 'keywords' field (although not present in every entry), which permits cross referencing of the other reversed dictionary. The Roget numbers are taken from the 1975 edition of Roget's International Thesaurus published by Penguin Books. In that book, the numbers range from 1 to 990. I have added a few extra numbers, to facilitate the grouping of grammatical items and small closed classes of lexical items. The extra numbers used are as follows:

994 interrogative particles 995 suffixes (both inflectional and derivational) 996 logical relators (ie. markers of kinds of dependent clauses) 997 pronouns (both full form pronouns, and pronominal clitics) 998 modals

1001 body parts (including psyche terminology) 1002 particles 1003 negatives 1004 reciprocal/reflexive 1005 ejaculative 1006 deictics (ie. demonstrative words) 1007 auxiliary verbs

This completes the introductory discussion. In the discussion which follows, I will give more details of the contents of each of the fields of information in the main dictionary particularly any notational abbreviations which are used. I will also comment on the orthography, the genetic affiliation of Djinang to other Yolngu languages, and various other topics.

vi

GENETIC AFFILIATIONS

At the time of writing, Djinang appears to be a member of the Nhangu group of languages in the Yolngu family. This was first suggested to me by Ray Wood of the Summer Institute of Linguistics, on the basis of survey work carried out by him in 1973 (approximately). Later, independently, David Zorc of the School of Australian Linguistics suggested the same affiliation on the basis of a small corpus of Golpa language data collected in 1981. (Golpa is one of the Nhangu languages, and the territory of its speakers lies in the northeastern extremities of the Wessel Islands). My own field notes, together with Djinba data which I have recently collected and the Yannhangu data (Crocodile Islands), strongly supports the affiliation suggested by Wood and Zorc. In fact, while the evidence for Djinang being a Nhangu language is quite good, the evidence for the same affiliation for Djinba is even better.

DJINANG DIALECTS

There are currently seven principal Djinangspeaking clans; some of these are small (one near to extinction, though with potential for survival), while others are quite large. Each such clan has its own speech variety, although the linguistic realizations of dialect differences are various and the linguistic distance between each dialect varies according to the clans being considered. Thus, Manyarring and Murrungun clans' speech varieties are almost identical, while both differ markedly in some features from Marrangu. As I will be publishing separately on this issue, I will not go into details here. For some clans, the dialect name is a more convenient label than the clan name (eg. Wuḻaki), and will be used in this volume. Each clan is given an abbreviation as follows:

Clan (or Dialect) Abbreviation Moiety Manyarring mn Djuwing Marrangu ma Djuwing Murrungun mu Djuwing Balmbi ba Yirritjing Djaḏiwitjibi dj Yirritjing Mildjingi mi Yirritjing Wuḻaki wu Yirritjing

vii

If a word is used by all clans, the entry for the word will give 'all' (or possibly DJN) in the dialect field, instead of listing all the clans individually.

My fieldwork thus far has been limited to the Djuwing dialects, and principally in the Marrangu and Murrungun dialects. Information about other dialects comes mainly from information supplied by speakers of Djuwing dialects. I express my appreciation to my principal teachers: Joe Giḏarri (ma), Manbarrarra (mu), and David Malanggi (mn). I: addition, I have access to A. Capell's handwritten field notes, most of which is in the Wulaki dialect, being gathered about 1941 or before. I extend thanks to various others who have supplied language data, both directly and indirectly: George Milpurrurr (Ganalbingu clan, Djinba language), Jack Merritji (ma), David and Kathleen Glasgow, Jeffrey Heath, Frances Morphy, David Zorc, Beulah Lowe, and Graham McKay.

In the main dictionary, I will occasionally cite a word from another language or dialect, and in such a case I indicate the language or dialect source by an abbreviation. The following are used:

DJAM Djambarrpuyngu DJB Djinba (dialect) GAN Ganalbingu (dialect) GUP Gupapuyngu LIYAW Ḻiyagaḻawumirr RITH Ritharrngu BURR Burarra

These are Yolngu languages or dialects, with the exception of Burarra which is a prefixing language to the west and northwest of Djinang. Ganalbingu and Djinba are Yirritjing and Djuwing clans which speak the language called 'Djinba' in the recent literature. Other clans which belong to this language are Dabi (Yirritjing), Manydjalpingu (Djuwing), and Walmapuy (moiety?). The various clans exhibit dialect variations similarly to the Djinang clans. Ḻiyagaḻawumirr is closely related to Ganalbingu and Djambarrpuyngu, according to local opinion. In fact, a Djinang man once said to me: 'Gupapuyngu is the mother of Djambarrpuyngu, and Ḻiyagaḻawumirr is the mother of Gupapuyngu' .

ORTHOGRAPHY AND COLLATING SEQUENCE

For ease of comparison with other Yolngu languages, the 'standard' Yolngu orthography is used herein, with the exception that:

1. Velar nasal is written n g and an n + g sequence is printed as n . g to avoid ambiguity with the velar nasal; and 2.. The vowel symbols e, o , and ä are not used becse vowel length is not contrastive in Djinang.

Although the Yolngu orthography is used, this in no way implies that this orthography is viewed as being an optimal practical orthography. There is accumulating evidence that speakers of at least some Yolngu languages have difficulty with the voiced versus voiceless stop symbols, and orthography testing would be very helpful.

The voicing contrast in stops is neutralised in word initial position. In a previous publication, I claimed that voicing was contrastive word initially ('Djinang Phonology' Pacific Linguistics Ser. A No. 60, Papers in Australian Linguistics No. 14, ANU:Canberra, p.12). In the light of further fieldwork, I have found this claim to be false. This brings Djinang into line with other Yolngu languages in this respect. The voicing contrast in word initial position is maintained consistently (and with meaning contrast) only in the two auxiliary verb forms: g i r i 'habitual aspect', and kiri 'progressive aspect'.

The collating sequence used for Djinang data in this volume is the following: abdḏdj giklḻmnṉnyngprrrtṯtjuwy

PARTS OF SPEECH AND TRANSITIVITY

The part of speech field is labelled 'PofS:' in the main dictionary. The following part of speech abbreviations are used:

adj adjective adv adverb aux auxiliary verb dm derivational morpheme dx deictic (ie. demonstratives) ej ejaculative

ix

ip interrogative particle lr logical relator modal modal n noun neg negative pro pronoun (free form or pronominal clitic) Pt particle recip reciprocal/reflexive suf suffix vO noninflecting class of suppletive verb v1 class 1 verb v2 class 2 verb v3 class 3 verb

The part of speech field also lists the transitivity value for a Djinang verb, if known. Four abbreviations are used: it intransitive dit diintransitive (ie. a 2place verb, the second place governing Dative case) t transitive dt ditransitive (ie. a 3place verb, the second place being unmarked for case, and the third place governing Accusative or Dative case as Indirect Object)

The verb class paradigms are given in "Djinang Morphology' (Pacific Linguistics Ser. A No. 60, Papers in Australian Linguistics No. 14, ANU:Canberra), and details may be gained from that source. A revised analysis of Djinang verb classes is in preparation at the time of writing; the revision will correct a minor error and add complementary detail to the account of the semantic categories marked formally by verbal inflections. A simplified list of the main forms for each class, and the categories they often encode, now follows:

fut y .pst imp t.pst t.pst.irr t.pst.cont class 1 -gi -mi -wi -(ngi)li -nyiri -nyi class 2 class 3 -gi -nmi -rri -(dji)ni -ṉiri -ṉi -dji 0 / -rri -yi -ni -nyiri -nyi

The categories abbreviated above are as follows, and these will very occasionally occur in entries in the main dictionary:

x

fut future y.pst yesterdaypast (any definite time in the past which is not the same day as the speech event) imp imperative t.pst todaypast (any past time on the same day as the speech event or contemporaneous with the speech event in which case the event must be punctiliar) t.pst.irr todaypastirrealis (the unreal mood of the todaypast tense) t.pst.cont todaypastcontinuous (continuous aspect in the todaypast tense)

In the dictionaries verb forms are cited with future inflection. It should be noted, however, that Djinang speakers use the imperative as the citation form (and so do Djinba speakers). The imperative is sufficient for indicating class membership, but I chose the future as the citation form because it exhibits the least allomorphy.

MEANING FIELDS

The content of meaning fields is fairly straightforward; a few comments are apt at this point, however. Firstly, information of an ancillary nature is sometimes included in one of the meaning fields of an entry. Such information is enclosed in parentheses, and pertains to the entry as a whole rather than to the particular meaning with which it occurs. Information about stem or inflectional irregularities, or a cognate form from another language, is typically presented in this way.

Djinang, and Yolngu languages generally, is rich in metaphorical senses for compounds usually formed by prefixing a bodypart nominal to a noun or verb stem. I try to give the nonmetaphorical senses for such words first in the entry, and the metaphorical ones later; though I have not been fully consistent in doing this. For some compounds, I give a literal translation of the parts, enclosed in parentheses.

OTHER WORKS ON DJINANG AND DJINBA

The author is currently pursuing studies towards an MA degree in Linguistics at the Australian National University. In the course of these studies, various items will be produced. The major ones will be a grammar o f

xi

Djinang, and if time permits, a comparative wordlist for Djinang and Djinba (including verb inflections in the latter language). The thesis will include studies on dialect variations in Djinang, and linguistic diffusion in the western extremities of the Yolngu language area. Anyone wishing to obtain copies of this material should write to me in care of the Summer Institute of Linguistics at the Darwin address given in this volume. Copies will b available at cost, provided orders are received prior to the date of final production anticipated to be towards the end of the first quarter of 1984. A copy will also be lodged with the Australian Institute of Aboriginal Studies
